Personal style. On your own terms.
Step one is defining your style language with the quiz.
I learnt my own style language.
Lisa Maria Pippus
And stopped struggling with visual choices.
Even though I studied fashion in Toronto and Milan I struggled to articulate exactly why an outfit did or didn’t work for me. Like many people, I thought the answer was more new clothes. Which of course led to an overstuffed wardrobe. And stress getting dressed. But…
…personal style doesn't start when you open your closet in the morning, get a colour palette or buy new clothes. It starts long before, with awareness of the strengths and values you want to make visible.
Defining your own personal style language is step one of the framework I’ve refined over 25 years, for myself and 1,000+ clients.
Style language helps you...
…be taken more seriously.
…communicate visible authority.
…develop your professional identity.
…experience beauty and craftsmanship.
…express yourself as your body changes.
Become discerning.
Your style language helps you evaluate if an item belongs to you. Or not.

One may describe your current situation.
✓ I tried French style formulas but my outfits are not expressive enough.
✓ I had my colors done but can’t combine them into a fabulous outfit.
✓ I have a big day and don’t know how to dress for impact and influence.
✓ I own a beautiful item and don’t know how to create a sophisticated outfit.
✓ My body has changed and I don’t know how to dress modern but still “me”.
Authority and personal expression.
Style language gives you both. On your terms.
The early 1800s division of style into two distinct directions, influences till today how we perceive authority and expression in dress. The iconic suit in consistent colors and shapes for visible male authority. Women got changing fashion trends to express beauty. When casual dress emerged, men got a new code. I help you forge your own path, defining your strengths and making them visible in an iconic-to-you outfit.
The iconic outfit experience.
Clients develop, test and refine their personal style benchmark.
DEVELOP
My client’s Citizen was visible in the soft, approachable garments. Prints with rounded lines express sweetness and result in a lack structured lines and the single color of the Hero.
TEST
The Hero is now visible in the single color and structured lines. Brick and beige add warmth. The lace top is sensual but not her style language.
REFINE
Shorter sleeves add a tailored fit. Buttons that match jacket colour create clarity. The necklace is her version of a tie, allowing the eye to travel upward.
